Gossip.
The Philharmonic Club gave it's second
and last concert yesterday evening at Rem
shaw Hall to an audience composed large.
ly of the most cultured element in Butte.
Everyone present was = lover of music and
the enthusiastic applause with which every
number a greeted showed how genuine
was their enjoyment OF the rich treat to
which they we're listening. The club showed
themselves the most thorough artists who
ever played in concert before a Butte audi
ence. The Boston Symphony Club may be
their superiors on account Of their greater
number producing a greater effect. But as in
terpreters OF "kammer-muSik'' proper they
cannot be excelled. Mr.. Emil Schenck, the
violincellist, has only one equal in the
country-he has no superior. His per-
Torrance last night was characterized BY
the
SANE BRILLIANT RENDERING
Of the previous evening. His instrument is q
powerful, deep-toned cello, and the volume
of tone he brings out of it is very rich. Mr..
Arnold also showed to fine advantage in
an exquisite piece, "Gypsy Melodies" by,
Sarasate, in which the wild wierdness of
these nomads was exemplifed in the rip
pling notes as they fell from his instru-
ment. Nine. Tanner again enchanted
her hearers with her beautiful
bell-like notes, which seem fitted
to be accompanied by the flute in tho most
difficult rum and trills. Mr.. Weiner's
flute obligato was in perfect tune and set
off the vocalist's lovely voice to the best
advantage. Mr.. Mcguire has been
able to arrange through the in.

to greet them with Overlooking numbers.
RHEA's RETURN ENGAGEMENT.
Manager Mcguire could not have hit upon
a happier idea than the engagement Of the
brilliant French actress, Rhea, for the
Fourth OF July and succeeding days. It
gives q rare opportunity to visitors from
outside towns snd the country to see and
hear one OF the greatest theatrical celebri-
ties now grazing the American stage. 1t is
needless to state what intense satisfaction
her re-eDgagement gives our own citizens.
During her absence from here she has
achieved additional triumphs. While in
Victoria, B. c.. she was feted by the /
of the colony and his
staff. Every honor social and other
was hers for the time. and
